Freedom of Speech and Confusion
Freedom of Speech is one of the most important fundamental guarantees of our constitution. However, it has been twisted and abused in contemporary times. People often don't know what they are talking about when they excersize their right to speak their minds. Also, people don't know what TO talk about when they attempt to speak their minds. Many people are under false pretenses when it comes to many major issues our country, almost borderline delusional in their beliefs and views. Freedom of speech is only effective if you know what you are talking about, and you know what to talk about. The confusion that exists in our country today may possibly be at tactic done by an enemy to use one of our guaranteed freedoms against ourselves, confusing us about the reality with fake news and other forms of deception that feed into our delusions about what is actually happening. This enemy, whoever and whatever it may be, is trying to conquer us. It's tactics include psychological and cultural warfare that follow the basic divide and conquer principle that has been used throughout the ages, but with the advent of mass media it is more easily implemented upon a nation. We have done it to other countries. We had radio broadcasts that we would put in the Soviet airwaves during the cold war. We had sophisticated propaganda tactics during the second world war, and we had hearts and minds tactics during the War on Terror. Not all of these strategies are divide and conquer tactics, but the ones being used against our country are, confusing us and getting us to turn against neighbor and family, dividing us on the most basic of levels.
